Jeremiah 14:18-20
New Catholic Bible
18 If I go out into the open fields,
I see those slain by the sword.
If I go into the city,
I behold those who have perished through famine.
Even prophets and priests roam in confusion
in a land they do not know.
19 Have you rejected Judah completely?
Has Zion become loathsome to you?
Why have you afflicted us
to a point where we cannot be healed?
We hope for peace, but to no avail,
for a time of healing, only to encounter terror.
20 O Lord, we acknowledge our wickedness
and the guilt of our fathers;
we have indeed sinned against you.
Jeremiah 14:18-20

if I go into the city,
I see the ravages of famine.(A)

have gone to a land they know not.(B)’”
19 Have you rejected Judah completely?(C)
Do you despise Zion?
Why have you afflicted us
so that we cannot be healed?(D)

but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(E)
20 We acknowledge(F) our wickedness, Lord,
and the guilt of our ancestors;(G)
we have indeed sinned(H) against you.
